3.) Austin Mack

Mack is another appealing young player with potential. Also coming from Ohio State, the 6-foot-2, 215-pound receiver posted 361 yards and three scores last year. While he wasn’t as productive as Victor in the passing game behind Justin Fields, he has solid athleticism and smooth route running.

He’s a physical receiver who enjoys press coverage and can create separation on his brakes, but against NFL talent, he could take some time to adapt.

Austin is the outlier of the group, and I believe he needs at least one season to develop into an NFL quality pass catcher, but he will also be battling with Victor and Coleman for the final slot in the wide receiver corps.
